There is war in Ukraine and in Germany, there is discussion about the possible reintroduction of compulsory military service and other community services. Many people are asking themselves how it could come to the war, when it will end and what consequences the war will have – for Ukraine, for Europe, for all of us.
With “Ask the IFSH!”, the IFSH offers current peace and security policy discussion formats, especially for Hamburg residents but also for other citizens. Our researchers discuss the war in Ukraine with you in an informative and descriptive manner – in person or virtual. Whether school classes, associations, citizens' initiatives, etc., we answer your questions, explain complex issues and discuss peace policy perspectives together with you.
